Elaine Luck Women's Wellness Following 10 years in the desert, it was time to head back to Blighty. Join me for titbits on health, happiness & as the name goes anything MiscElainey x

With another stint in the Middle East under my belt, it was time to head back to the UK, April 2017. Leaving behind friends, a wonderful womens health & fitness business & daily partnership with a best friend and of course the ever supportive hubster (couldnt drag him from the sun, well I suppose his successsful business had something to do with it), all the pieces of the family puzzle seemed to c

ome together and point to it being time to head home or near enough (at least the same country albeit the opposite end, am originally Scottish) and see what happens next. With qualifications now not only in Group and Personal Fitness (past 15 years) but also Nutrition, Health Coaching & Mindfulness Training, the future will hopefully be bright and shining. I will be running various womens workshops in the very near future in Dorset, Scotland & online as well as being available for 1-2-1's for any Health Coaching related matters be it, food, general health, fat loss, exercise, the 'busy mum', stress, sleep (or lack of) & one of the favs -
the Basics of Raw Chocolate Making etc etc. Please do get in touch if you think I can be of help to you or otherwise, sit back and join me for anything MiscElainey that comes along. Health & Happiness Always

Isn’t life funny- this morning I’ve completed my first Couch to 5km and have been pushing a wee bit more for the past few weeks.
-
On the day that I manage my first ever. trained for, 10km (more info to come as to the why), Facey reminds me that this time 8 years ago I had recently returned from my couple of weeks coma holiday in Poole hospital.

Funny old world but thank you 🙏 facey for reminding me where I’ve been and what we can do, at any age, when we put our minds and bodies to it 🏃🏼‍♀️

Final pics of the glorious Orkney. Back home and back to work.
- incredible sandy beach that I had spotted form the plane and was so happy to find. even I went in the water - normally scottish waters are WAY to cold for me after years in the Middle East
- puffin sighting - gorgeous wee creatures
- the incredible local lady Cara with her swimming medals who supports our organisation
- a SAMH wrapped bus that sadly I wasn’t allowed to drive - good decision there I reckon
- stunning and fascinating Italian Chapel built by Italian prisoners of war on the 1940’s
- Old man of Hoy
- and the final boat home

Had a fabulous time with my colleagues and all the amazing people and wildlife we met- even including the sheep and turkeys on the road as we drove away from our cottage - totally random 😂

From one end of the Uk to the total opposite.

Am not going to lie, it’s been absolutely amazing visiting Orkney for the first time working with my gorgeous team supporting with chats, information and lots of colouring with cute youngsters at the International Island Games 2025.

A totally fabulous and friendly island and we couldn’t have gotten better weather if we tried, so so lucky.

2 more days to go

Now the usual Elaine ridiculousness-
1- trying to do week 6 of Couch to 5k and ended up running along the edge of a field in the mist and losing my footing countless times, climbing various fences to find my way back, getting totally soaked from the knee down, and finally being chased by a herd of cows that clearly thought I was breakfast
&
2 - at the incredible 5000year old Skara Brae looking around the village and in one swift movement , dropping my entry ticket into house number 1 - bearing in mind, you can’t actually enter the houses, just see from above. A lot of grovelling and apologies to the lovely lady on the gate who assured me I wasn’t the first numpty to do that (my word not hers)

And yes , ‘only me!!!’

A totally fabulous long awaited weekend with the sister. What more could you what for a weekend in London .
- ABBA - totally surreal but utterly fabulous
- Notting Hill - pretty much the same
- Portobello market - cool
- Canal boat ride - gorgeous
- Camden Market - bonkers
- Southbank dinner with gorgeous friends and beautiful Mexican food - lovely
- Lifetime dream- Wimbledon- no.1 court, the hill and plenty of strawberries and cream and pimms - incredible
- London City tour bus - why not
- walk through Hyde park - chilled
- finishing with watching the men’s finals at Luton airport - didn’t actually mind the EasyJet delay 😂
- and of course a million selfies

Quick sleep at the sisters then back to Abz ✈️ waiting for the flight for 5 days of work at the Orkney International Island Games - So excited.

Rather busy itinerary but all totally brilliant 🤩

When you inherited a good sense of direction from your father and never get lost but have only been to London probably 5 times in your 52 years around the globe, there is something rather magical looking at this map and thinking ‘oooh I might actually have to work at this’ 😂

2 sisters flying in from different scottish airports to airports at opposite sides of London for a weekend of Abba, Wimbledon. Dinner with friends and adventuring- what could possibly go wrong 😂 💃🏼 🪩 💃🏼 🎾 ☀️ 🍸

Well Princess Pixie Dog Luck, you’ve reached the grand old milestone of 13 years around the globe (91 in human years) - pretty good going for a teeny tiny woofer. I thought you deserved a wee birthday photo montage - like you’d care!!!

You might not be able to hear us now (maybe you’re just pretending for your own sanity), your heart and lungs need a wee bit of pharmaceutical assistance, but you’re still the ruler of this house and love a wee run at the woods or at the beach and obviously you wish to be included in EVERY car and van journey.

We don’t necessarily appreciate the constant night time barking for treats or the wee accidents but we’ll put up with it. Keep being cute and in charge 😂 !!!

Who says women in midlife are done!!!! Not me or the AA (automobile association products not Alcoholics Anonymous but I’m sure they would too) .

Thank you for the fabulous instructions (❤️ instructions) on the back of the newly purchased AA jump leads and the copious amount of YouTube videos learning how to jump start my beloved Badger Van 🚐 who has been neglected recently due to the new, shiny motor 🚙.

I now know what a strut tower is in a car/van for to place one of the leads (-ve one btw) and no it’s not a fabulous way of walking ! But I might be strutting tomorrow if the battery stays happy by morning !

And I can now jump start a car/van - woohoo for midlife ‘can do’ women ! 🚐🚙👷‍♀️💪🛠️🧰

I quite often get teased by the girl for being a bit matchy matchy with my clothes but when today’s favourite workout song on my ‘chosen at random’ Spotify rock workout mix is ‘Highway to the Danger zone’ and it matches my top, well that’s maybe just taking things a wee bit too far 😂 .

If you know, you know 😉

When you decide that instead of doing something with the stunning curry sauce you handcrafted over 2 days, you decide to throw it over 1/3rd of the kitchen floor, 6 cupboards and lots of the kick boards instead of getting it in the freezer just because you’ve had a long work day. 😂

Almost as good as the hot tomato sauce I threw over the sisters new kitchen a few years ago when the lid came off their blender and I was making dinner - homemade of course 😉.

It’s definitely good that I don’t have small children that could hear my language and also that the woofer is deaf. As Matthew Goode says in Dept Q tv show- ‘there’s a lot of f-*kery going on here!’

April birthdays wellbeing day - outside whenever possible and Thanks to the girl for the ideas and hubster for paying .

Totally glorious to be outside with gorgeous animals and in amazing surroundings plus incredible cake made by the girl x

During my many years of health and fitness coaching, I always suggested to clients that instead of trying to move their bodies in ways that worked for their friends, family, what they ‘used’ to do, or the latest celeb craze, it’s better to move in ways that felt right for them, at that time!

In my mind, it’s about 2 things:

1- WHAT DOES YOUR BODY NEED THAT DAY - are you feeling energetic/ tired/ weak?what does it need - maybe even a rest day!!! I’ve had been hibernating a touch over the past few months but in the last couple of weeks, I’ve felt that I’ve been ready to break out and feel fit and strong again. Last week I rejoined the wee local gym and went twice, focusing on heavier weights, hubster and I had a REALLY long bike ride (lol), and on Saturday I woke and had a think about what I wanted to do. I was thinking gym but actually the weather was so nice that my brain decided that a good old stretch with some garden yoga 🧘‍♂️(in jammies) with my yoga chill Spotify playlist was what was required. And it was.

2- the other thing to think about is WHAT NATURALLY GIVES YOU JOY/A BUZZ. I get a rush of endorphins walking up steps and wee hills (I may be weird), I love the feeling of my legs powering on and can’t wait to see the view at the top. I can also get buzzy attending an exercise to music class or a good gym session- my body just seems to like it.
BUT- that’s not for everyone!!! I’ve had this discussion with 2 of the 4 people in my house and those feelings just don’t come for them with the same activities.
HOWEVER, seeing the girl get into the freezing cold North Sea and swim (twice) on Saturday was glorious to watch and that’s where she got her BUZZ. Me not so much 😂. 🥶. She was so happy and going in once wasn’t enough so after checking all was fine and her body wasn’t in shock (like mine 😂-actually it was ok) off she popped for round 2 whilst our friend and expert wild swimmer Gill and I drank tea and munched brownies.

It’s so so important in my mind, to follow both points - check in and do what your body needs AND do what gives you a buzz. And if you haven’t found the buzz yet, keep trying different things.
